C 9.92 Observe applicable laws and regulations. Oils are inflammable. Do not let them come in contact with hot engine parts as fire can re- sult. Hydraulic oil, brake fluid During tractor operation, these fluids are pres- surized and pose a health hazard. Do not spill these fluids.
Page 16
Operating Instructions Operating instructions Particularly the particulates contained in the exhaust gas can cause cancer. For this rea- son the engine should not be operated in en- closed spaces. Heat The exhaust gases are very hot and can ig- nite inflammable material. Therefore keep the exhaust pipe away from inflammable materi- als.

C 9.92 Selecting road travel (transport speed) The tractor is stationary. Set the program switch (2) to speed range 1 or 2. NOTE You can also change the speed range while driving at reduced speed. Release the parking brake. Depress the accelerator for the desired ground speed. The tractor will start off and can be driven up to the maximum ground speed of the selected speed range.
Page 66
Operating Instructions Operation The tractor is stationary. Set the fine adjustment knob (1) to 0. Set the program switch (2) to speed range 3 or 4. Adjust the PTO RPM with the hand throttle (3). NOTE The engine speed must be at least 1500 RPM as the control only begins to function at this RPM.
Page 67
C 9.92 Adjusting the fine adjustment knob NOTE You can adjust the fine adjustment knob (1) any time while driving for a fine and stepless control of the ground speed. In position 0 the tractor is stationary. When the knob is turned clockwise, the tractor will start off and in end position 11 of the scale the maximum speed of the range will be reached.

C 9.92 Set the program switch (2) to range 2. ATTENTION Drive the tractor warm for approx. 10-12 min. at range 2. Set the program switch to range 1. NOTE The functions of the travel drive are identical except it does not lock the differential: When the ground speed* exceeds 25 km/h, the transmission automatically switches from the hydrostatic drive to the mechanical gear.
Page 72
Operating Instructions Operation Switching the differential lock on NOTE With the differential lock you can improve trac- tion on soft, slippery ground. The lock is en- gaged when the engine speed is over 1000 RPM. You can engage the differential lock only briefly by pressing the button momentarily.
C 9.92 Steering The tractor has an hydraulically-actuated articulated steer- ing. The wheels also stay in track in curves so that attach- ments are guided without any lateral offset. Steering Turn the steering wheel (1) in the desired direction. The possible turning radii depend on the tires and track width of your tractor.
Page 74
Operating Instructions Operation Brakes The service brake is a wet disc brake in the front axle. It is hydraulically actuated and acts on all four wheels. The parking brake is operated by an electric cylinder controlled with the parking brake switch. Operating the service brake Depress the brake pedal (1).
Page 75
C 9.92 Releasing the parking brake Turn off the parking brake switch (2). The parking brake will be released, the indicator light in the switch and parking brake indicator (3) will extinguish. ATTENTION When driving with the parking brake actuated, an acoustic warning signal will sound.
Operating Instructions Operation Driving on slopes DANGER Driving on slopes is dangerous as the tractor can tip over if the centre of gravity exceeds the tip-over limit on an extreme slope. The following factors will reduce the hazard: small or no load low ground speed low gradient low tire inflation pressure...
C 9.92 Special operating instructions Stationary operation The tractor can be used for stationary operation, for exam- ple, to drive a water pump via the PTO shaft. ATTENTION Park the tractor on level ground in both direc- tions. Attach the stationary equipment to the PTO shaft (1) at the front or rear.
Operating Instructions Special operating instructions Adjusting the track width You can widen the track width of the tractor by adding spacers. You have a choice of 3 different spacers. DANGER Observe the safety notes on safe parking and jacking up for the wheel change in the main- tenance instructions.
Page 79
C 9.92 Operating the emergency gear release (hydrostatic DUAL drive only) NOTE If the engine was stalled and can not be restarted, the emergency gear release must be operated before a new start.

Page 103
C 9.92 Push the push-pull rod in. The PTO speed will be 1000 RPM at an engine speed of 2390 RPM. ATTENTION Never turn the PTO on with the engine off! Increase the engine speed to 1500-1800 RPM. Release the lock at the safety switch (1) and depress the switch.
Page 104
Operating Instructions Operating the attachments Turning on the rear PTO NOTE The rear PTO can be turned on with the con- trol lever (3) in the area of the articulated joint. The control positions are shown on the in- struction plate (2). The safety switch (1) must be switched off.
Page 105
C 9.92 Operating the hydraulic accumulator* (front lift) The hydraulic accumulator allows the ground pressure of the attachment to be decreased steplessly and the front axle load to be increased. This improves the climbing ability. Press key (5). The LED indicator (7) will come on. The electronic pressure sensor (2) with a digital display al- ways shows the current pressure of the front lift with the float position turned off.
Page 106
Operating Instructions Operating the attachments NOTE An hydraulic accumulator pressure under 30 bar (light equipment) will require too many control operations as the accumulator can not function yet. Applications with hydraulic accumulator NOTE If the attachment adjusts to ground uneven- ness with a delay, reduce the relief pressure or HYS.1.
Page 107
If a new or unknown attachment is to be in- stalled, the cable harness for attachment encoding 204-80-72 must be used.

Operating Instructions Operating the attachments ATTENTION Turn on the safety switch (6) only at low en- gine speed. Turn the rotary knob (5) to 0. Release the lock at the safety switch (6) and depress the switch. The indicator in the switch will light. ATTENTION After the engine speed was increased, the oil flow may only be increased slowly.
Page 109
C 9.92 NOTE The attachment variable pump will attempt to maintain the oil flow rate specified by the attachment plug and potentiometer, even if the engine RPM drops. Only when the maximum swash angle of the pump is reached will the oil flow be reduced when the RPM are reduced (refer to diagram).
Page 110
Operating Instructions Operating the attachments Operating the hydraulic system* (fixed setting 80 L) The hydraulic system is a facility for operating attachments with a fixed hydraulic power requirement. The hydraulic sys- tem is operated electrically from the driver’s station. Connect the hydraulic hoses of the attachment to the screw couplings (1) and (2) and the leakage oil cou- pling (3).
Page 111
C 9.92 ATTENTION The attachment must be to set to 80 litres/ min, otherwise damage to the attachment or hazards for people standing in the vicinity can result. ATTENTION When you no longer use the attachment, al- ways turn the pump off with the safety switch so that the hydraulic oil will not heat up un- necessarily.
